Others prefer Downloader4X (in the repos as d4x). It can automatically download and sort data according to type, actual source domain, referring source domain and several other options which means that, no matter how much I download, the data is always sorted and easy to manage. I've used it for many years and I've not had any problems with it. It is relatively old with a non-standard but perfectly usable GUI. The complete list of supported download managers is given on the add-on’s homepage.Well, I have no reason to believe that aria cannot download RS links.Īria is available from the repos.

The good news is that FlashGot support is available for all popular download managers on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

FlashGot supports 50+ external download managers. In short, FlashGot turns every supported download manager into a download manager for Firefox. FlashGot helps you override the browser’s own basic download and connect to the more powerful external download manager. Not all download managers come with a plug-in for the Firefox browser.įlashGot is an Open Source Firefox add-on that helps the Firefox browser and the external download manager do a smooth handshake. As I said above, external download managers sometimes don’t recognize a downloadable link in Firefox or simply don’t integrate well with Firefox. What then? FlashGot Speeds to the RescueįlashGot is the bridge between your browser (Mozilla Firefox in this case) and your external download manager. Sometimes, even good download managers miss the plot. Good download Managers usually integrate with browsers that are the first window for a download. Download managers allow you the flexibility of doing simple things like shutting down the computer after all downloads are safely home residing on your desktop, grabbing links from file hosting sites like Rapidshare, or the one a lot of us like to concentrate on – downloading YouTube videos without a fuss.
